  1. FutureMrsP what resort are you staying at? My husband and I have stayed at Sandals and we did the Catamaran to Dunn's River Falls and it was amazing. We have also done the Horse Back Riding through Lee's tour, which was very reasonable and fun. On our last trip to Jamaica we did the YS falls, but that will be an all day tour from Ocho Rios and it isn't as good as Dunn's River.
  2. I would suggest you taking a picture of the flowers you want to Michael's and have them make them for you. My husband and I did this and they turned out beautiful, now I have a center piece for my dinning room table.
  3. I would suggest the first level Butler Suite. I just got back from Sandals Whitehouse for my wedding. My husband and I decided to go with the butler suite, and it was wonderful. They organized everything for me and kept track of my guests. We had 26 people, without them we would have nto been able to eat in a large group. Also, since we had so many people they kept track of their room numbers and helped me get in touch with them when they had to move my rehersal dinner due to rain. Another plus to the Butler suite was they dealt with the wedding coordinator. I will post my wedding review below: 1. Wedding Coordinator- The first one I had was Jodi-Ann she was awful to say the least. Talking with other brides on the resort, they had the same experience with her. She met with us, but if it had not been that I wanted to add the flower package and noticing my menus were all changed I would hav ebeen completely suprised! For our rehersal dinner, she gave us a menu to choose from that was out of season. When she realized her error, she took it upon herself to switch everything. Then, with our paid one hour cocktail recpetion she didn't even let us choose a menu. Once we caught all her errors Rochelle took care of everything for us. She was more than accomodating. 2. Flowers-My husband and I took pictures to Michael's and had one of the designers there do all of our flowers. We got my bouquet, 6 brides maid bouqets, and 7 boutinaires for $220. The ony thing we decided to upgrade on the resort was the flowers on the gazebo, which if I could do it all over again I wouldn't have wasted $300. Sandals must pick the flowers in the AM, because my flowers were wilted by the time I walked down the aisle at 4pm. 3. Photographers- I was very unhappy with the photographers at the resort. Very unhappy is an understatement. My husband and I had an awful time picking out our free picture. However; we took our photographers with us. I highly recommend that you check out their website Ambience Photography :: See Beauty in Everything.. I worked very closely with Tammy and Tamar and we very happy with everything so far. However; I have not seen my pictures from the wedding, I will post when I get them. Don't let sandals steer you away from taking your own photographer, they are still guests of the resort! As long as the photographer is a paying guest you should not have a problem. After all the ins and outs I have learned from the sandals wedding planning, I have decided to go into business of destination wedding coordinating. There is so much sandals does not tell you. PM me if you have any more questions.
  4. Hi! I am getting married in July at Sandals Whitehouse. I have recieved floral prices packets, and the usual wedding prices such as hair and etc. IS there any other price list that I should be asking for that has upgrades?
  5. Hi Everyone, I just talked with my wedding planner today and she emailed me the different floral arranges available for bouquets and the differnt wedding arches decor along with the prices. If any of you want this information PM and I will be happy to send it out to you. Also, she sent me the pictures of the wedding sites at Sandals Whitehouse.
  6. Try Chair Covers & Linens: the premier source for chair covers and table linens they have a ton of different colors and types of chair covers. Also, bbjlinen.com is another good website.
  7. Sarah, It is very easy to switch locations. Trust me I have done this three times. My TA is probably hating me.
